Avoid the News Songtext
von Hana Eid

Something tells me you′ll forget what I've said
Before I finishing saying it
Someone tells me you hold a grudge
And I laugh, ′cause I'm outliving this

Now I see your name in my books, in my poetry
I can't escape anything that never wanted me
I get pissed off by the books, by the bedside
Avoid the news, brush my teeth, never close my eyes
Listen to you tell me I′m never listening
You make it clear that I better fucking hear this
Turn it off, straight to black, try to get some sleep
When did you realize you didn′t love me?


Drive past my friends
Old house, sit there and
Think about the shape of the outside of yours
When you told me you cut them off easily
As we lied with our backs to your floor

Now I see your name in my books, in my poetry
I can't escape anything that never wanted me
I get pissed off by the books by the bedside
Avoid the news, brush my teeth, never close my eyes
Listen to you tell me I′m never listening
You make it clear that I better fucking hear this
Turn it off, straight to black, try and get some sleep
When did you realize you didn't love me?

I see your name in my books, in my poetry
I can′t escape anything that never wanted me
I get pissed off by the books by the bedside
Avoid the news, brush my teeth, never close my eyes
Listen to you tell me I'm never listening
You make it clear that I better fucking hear this
Turn it off, straight to black, try and get some sleep
When did you realize you couldn′t love me?
